Alpha:Dragonspawn

Strategies

For most characters, Dragonspawn can be handled in much the same way as Zombies, although they have less health and can be poisoned. Berserkers, in particular, will have very little trouble against Dragonspawn. The magical nature of their attack means that physical resistance will have no effect, but since they do normal amounts of damage, this isn't a big deal.

"You've invaded my home, stolen my treasures and slain my children! Prepare to answer for your crimes, proud hero! You'll not stand so tall after I condemn you to the flames!"

The Matron of Flame has the third-highest health out of all the bosses at 477, meaning that you need to be prepared to deal a lot of damage to take her down. As with regular Dragonspawn, Berserkers have the best odds of defeating the Matron. The Matron of Flame has no other special traits, so most of the usual tactics of softening up bosses, like APHEELSIK, BURNDAYRAZ, and such, will work on the Matron without many problems.
